Apple called this iPhone '3G S' where the S refers to it's amazing speed. The main upgrade types of earpiece this iPhone is the speed and probably the only and biggest reason that may attract you to upgrade to this new version.

Acting like a big shot - There's a few signs your salesman is acting like a big shot. He's wearing more gold than Mr. T. His cologne is strong enough to be declared a deadly weapon. He won't take his communication equipment out while talking to you and answers calls in the middle of talking to you. He comes right out and says he's hot stuff, but you see his car is actually a Ford Focus. Never play the big shot. Clients hate it. They want to buy from normal people just like them that understand their problems.

This is what I was referring to when I mentioned "those" people. You have experienced it; I know you have. You are minding your own business, shopping or walking through a store, or any number of situations. You hear someone talking, they are looking at you, but you are confused. They really are not making any sense. You do not know them. You may even answer questions they are asking. Then you realize, they have a types of earpiece. You feel stupid, and it irritates you that they were staring right at you and speaking as if speaking to you.

If your dad has an radio earpiece iPod Nano Shuffle rd or th Generation or Touch then leather iPod cases may be the perfect gift iPod cases come in a wide range of colors like red blue brown and classic black. Starting at $5, they are affordable for any budget.

Thermos bottle. Don't go on a trip without one. But you're going on a cruise, you say. OK...I don't know about you, however after a few days at sea, I easily tire of having room service deliver my coffee and danish. I don't put out the hang-tag on the doorknob because it never fails that if I request an early coffee, I will have had trouble falling asleep and would rather sleep late. Or vice versa; I wake up early and have to wait til it arrives.

For an excellent sound quality and the dual functionality, adding the GN Netcom GN6210 to your gadget collection would be a smart buy. It provides convenience and Bluetooth capability for an affordable price. The comfortable design makes an asset when using your mobile phone or traditional landline phone for long periods of time.

A mobile phone is a type of transceiver, meaning that it can both transmit and receive radio waves. The clever bit is that, unlike other transceivers such as walkie-talkies, it can relay both signals simultaneously. A mobile phone achieves this by running two separate signals, one for transmitting and one for receiving, at the same time.

Aside from that, there really isnât a huge amount of difference between a mobile phone and a walkie-talkie. Just like a walkie-talkie, once you talk into the speaker, your voice is converted to an electrical impulse and relayed, via electrons housed inside a small antenna, to the intended recipient. Then, just like with a walkie-talkie, those same electrical impulses are converted (via a reversal of the initial process) back into your voice. Mobiles, like walkie-talkies, have small, compact aerials and use relatively small amounts of power.

However, unlike walkie-talkies, mobile phones can communicate with one another over much vaster distances. How? Well, this is the REALLY clever bit. The cellular network divides up land into cells and each cell has its own phone mast. The phone mast boosts the phoneâs signal, in essentially the same way a signal tower does for a radio network, except that they relay the signal from your phone to other cell towers, allowing the signal to carry across much further distances without significant degradation.

Of course, there are only so many available radio frequencies in any given area. Walkie-talkie users prevent the mass chaos that uncontrolled broadcasting/transmitting would no doubt cause by licensing and heavily policing radio usage (in fact, we covered this exact subject earlier in the month).

Imagine if emergency services were unable to use their radio frequencies! Awful. It is therefore very important that frequencies in use are policed and this is why you cannot buy radios with a power output stronger than 0.5 watts without a license.

However, mobile phones operate differently. Each mobile essentially re-uses its own frequency, in a similar way to a licensed radio frequency might. It is rare that all possible frequencies are in use at the same time, but it actually does happen (think: New Yearâs Eve).

When you're listening to speakers the sound comes from "over there," but with headphones where is the sound? A lot depends on the recording and the headphones. With mono recordings the sound is centered inside your head, with stereo the sound picture is more complicated. Vocals, or any sound mixed to appear centered between the left and right channels, will be inside your head, like a mono recording. The sounds over to the left and right might come from next to your ears.

Listening over one of the better open-back full-size headphones, the sound might feel like it's surrounding you. You're in the middle of the sound field, or it might come from slightly above your head. The headphones melt away and you are one with the music. Sometimes when I'm watching a movie I forget the headphones. The sound isn't over there, it's all around me; I'm in the middle of a sound "bubble."

I'm not suggesting that headphones can ever mimic what we hear from speakers. Headphones can't do that, but the downside to speakers is they can never be heard directly; the speakers' sound is combined with the room's reflections, reverberations, and other forms of acoustic interference. With headphones the sound "couples" directly to your ears, so you have a far more intimate connection to the music.

With full-size over-the-ear headphones, the contours of your outer ears direct the sound to your inner ears in the same way sound is heard from speakers. In-ear headphones "bypass" the outer ear and produce a more direct connection to the recording. With purely acoustic music, the sound over headphones takes on what I call a microphone perspective, you hear what the mics "heard."

That's not the case with electronic music since no microphones were used to make the recording. Even so, I find lots of electronica sounds amazing, and some of the best albums were mixed to produce out-of-head stereo imaging. Listen for depth, does the sound seem very close to your ears or further away? Recordings vary a lot in their stereo imaging, but the more closely you listen, the more aware you will be of spatial cues in headphone listening. Try some of Brian Eno's ambient albums like "On Land" and "Apollo" to hear what I'm talking about.

To get started, relax and focus on the sound. Your surroundings should be fairly quiet, close your eyes, and sink into the music. After a few minutes the separate left, center, right stereo perspectives should fall away, and your head will feel like it's in the center of an expansive sound field.

Share your thoughts on spatial headphone listening below.

We found this excellent article hereÂ and as you can see it give us valuable information on why headphones aren't better than speakers, but if you don't want yourÂ neighborsÂ complaining or your family moaning, then you'll have to wait for the technology to come up with perfect acoustic sound.

ThisÂ is the moment a motorist was captured on camera driving in a busy street â" looking at his mobile, with his laptop plugged in and wearing earphones.

The shocking footage was recorded in rush hour traffic and shows a blue 4Ã4 heading towards the centre of Aberdeen.

The male driver of the Land Rover Discovery now faces being quizzed by police about his antics â" and has already been condemned by road safety campaigners.

The video was shot in the cityâs Queenâs Road and uploaded to YouTube by a mystery cyclist known only as Cycle Cam.

Initially, the driver can be seen apparently looking down at his mobile phone as he cruises past the self-styled vigilante.

But when the biker catches up with him as he gets stuck in a queue of traffic, the full scale of his onboard gadget collection is revealed.

His ears are plugged by headphones connected to a mobile device, he is looking down at his phone and even has a laptop switched on and open next to the transmission tunnel of his vehicle.

The cyclist flashes his lights and points out the separate gadgets to him, but the 4Ã4 pulls off.

In a description to accompany the video, Cycle Cam writes: âThis bloke is driving a Land Rover in town, looking at a mobile phone, laptop and wearing headphones on both ears.

âNot only is he not paying any attention to the road, I suspect heâs not even on this planet.

âI was truly surprised when I saw the laptop with the screen on and the headphones on both ears.

âI was âjustâ expecting him to be on his mobile phone, as I see dozens of times everyday.â

The latest driver is just one of many motorists named and shamed on YouTube by the cyclist, who first caught the publicâs attention last year with a video of a man pretending to be a police officer during a road rage encounter.

Describing his or her self as a âdaily cycle commuterâ, Cycle Camâs online profile says: âGeneral cycling education and naming and shaming bad driving in the roads of Aberdeen city and shire.

âDonât want to be a star in my videos? Donât endanger others. Drive properly, donât be impatient and donât be rude. Simple!â

After being contacted by the Press and Journal about the video, police said they were âfollowing a positive line of inquiryâ.

Last night, the driver was criticised by local councillors and road safety groups.

Hazlehead, Ashley and Queens Cross councillor Ross Thomson said he had been âextremely stupidâ.

He said: âDangerous driving like this has been a concern of the local community for some time and is regularly mentioned at community council meetings.

âIt is especially a concern on the Queenâs Road because of the close proximity of all the schools in the area.

âThe fact he was wearing headphones and had on a laptop is extremely dangerous.

âIf youâre wearing headphones you are completely cutting off one of your senses, meaning you canât hear emergency vehicles or other driversâ horns.

âI know that driving through town can be frustrating but there is no e-mail that is more important than the life of a pedestrian.â

Neil Greig, research and policy director at the Institute of Advanced Motorists (IAM), said the driver should be âashamedâ.

He said: âItâs a clear example of breaking the law on mobile phone use and the driver should be ashamed to be taking such risks for the sake of keeping in touch. No call is more importantÂ than someoneâs life.

âThe IAM have no problem with camera users sharing their footage with Police Scotland so that they can consider if formal action is required.

âIdeally, we would like to see more police out there enforcing the law rather than relying on amateurs.

âNo one taking such footage should be pursuing a car just to get a good shot. Concentrating on catching someone out is also a distraction from the real task of driving or riding safely.â
